The Jewel in the Crown of the SPEY range. Selected from some of the oldest casks in our warehouse, it is a rich and powerful bottling showing great texture and flavour, with a long smooth finish. Only available in limited quantities it serves as the high point in the range. Available in wooden presentation case.
SPEY has a royal link that dates back almost 200 years when Lord Byron is understood to have gifted King George III with a barrel of SPEY whisky to celebrate his marriage to Annabella Milbanke in 1815. Historic records show this barrel was dispatched to the King’s family home at Kew Palace. The whisky is produced exclusively under licence from Historic Royal Palaces - the independent charity that looks after the Tower of London, Hampton Court Palace, Banqueting House, Kensington Palace and Kew Palace.
Tasting Note
"Deep rich amber gold in colour. Aromas of toffee, dried fruits and oak leading on to a smooth creamy texture. Flavours of butterscotch, warm spices and more oak yield to a long silky smooth finish which lingers on and on. A luscious smooth and regal whisky, the Jewel in the Crown."
